As good as advertised. Josh, Edgar and Daniel were very professional, accommodating and patience. Team worked tirelessly and did their best to meet the timeline. Look forward to working with them in the future.

True Norther underpinned our basement. They were fantastic. They started the work earlier than anticipated, and were incredibly conscientious around our home. The work was beautifully completed, on budget and on time. We could not recommend more.

I had been thinking of renovating our 1930's home basement for some time, but we were weary of the process. We gathered a few quotes from various underpinning companies and chose True North, and are so glad we did! Daniel was great from the start. He patiently answered our questions and helped us understand the process. He was transparent about potential problems/costs that could arise to prepare us for an accurate quote. Once the project started, there were always about 4 workers present. There were very respectful, hard working and humorous. Trayvon could be heard singing some days- a good sign I would say. John, Lincoln, Fernando and Trayvon were there everyday, along with others at times. They cleaned up at the end of each day so that our backyard was never left in a mess. They used an outdoor porta-potty, so did not have to access the main floor of our house, which kept disruption and cleaning to a minimum, which was very appreciated. They completed their work as per schedule and Daniel communicated with our project manager to ensure ease of the finishing part. We had inspections completed at designated times, and the inspector commented each time about the great quality of work being done. I would highly recommend Daniel and his crew!!!

Our house was built in 1883 and has a field stone foundation. There was an inch of water in our basement every time it rained. Daniel and his team at true north underpinning were able to dig out our basement, create a new foundation (which will eventually also support a 3rd storey addition) and water proof the entire space. The guys that worked on the project were some of the hardest working and lovely people I have met in the construction industry. They were on site by 6:30am every morning and didn't stop until the job was finished. My house was left clean and respected the entire time. The final outcome was perfect, came within budget, and finished 1 week sooner than I expected- can't ask for more! I would recommend TNU without any hesitation it has been a nearly perfect experience.

We were very happy with the work that True North did for our basement underpinning last March. They were able to start early and completed the work in less than 4 weeks (ahead of schedule) and impressed my contractor so much that he says he will be using them for all future underpinning jobs. The crew was friendly, punctual and tidy. Daniel, the owner, is solution oriented and takes the time to educate and explain things well to his clients. He was very responsive when any issues arose. Great customer care! Would highly recommend.

The most positive experience I have ever had with a home improvement company. Finished one week ahead of schedule. Followed up with them twice after the work was completed and they had been paid in full and they still got back to me and answered my questions. I would definitely recommend.

We had an excellent experience with True North Underpinning. The crew showed up on time everyday during the entire duration of the project. The foremen were excellent, keeping us informed and helping us solve problems and make decisions along the way. The project was completed on time and on budget. We especially appreciated the little things the crew would do like clearing snow and moving our garbage bins, which shows they care about their customers. Don't hesitate to hire them for your basement project.

My wife and I are so unbelievably happy we decided to hire True North to underpin our basement.

We researched a variety of companies and, like many people, were drawn to the glowing Home Stars reviews.

Upon meeting Daniel in person, it all totally makes sense: he knows his business, he knows how to deal with people and can communicate the technical parts of the work in a clear and understandable manner and has a ton of integrity.

Once we signed our contract, Daniel walked us through every step of the process and every line item in the budget, including possible overages that may occur.

He made himself available when we required coordination with other contractors we hired and creatively troubleshooted every wrinkle and hurdle that arose.

Sean was the lead point person we dealt with on our job and he and his crew would show up every day before 7:00 AM to prepare for the day ahead. These guys worked tirelessly - with smiles on their faces - and would entertain any and all of our questions, report on how our sick dog was doing and take our elderly neighbour's garbage & recycling out each week. They were basically performing open-heart surgery on our house and we were shocked at the painless process and thrilled at the end result.

True North started to demolish my basement on February 5th and they poured concrete floors March 6th. The final bill was exactly what Daniel had originally quoted.

We would recommend True North, without hesitation, to anyone and everyone considering digging out their basement.

Daniel and his crew are outstanding . We recently completed a full basement renovation in our typical East York semi. This involved digging down several feet and finishing the entire basement. True North handled excavation, underpinning, all plumbing rough-ins, and the installation of a new central beam to replace previously existing load-bearing posts.

In terms of both schedule and cost, Dan was detailed and thorough. Prior to singing them up for the job, Dan came by and walked us through every aspect of the project. We really appreciated his approach. He was great to work with.

Once work started, the same crew (Jon, Keith, Sean) showed up every day, first thing, and worked consistent hours. Progress was quick and the job was completed as scheduled. We lived in the two upper floors of the house while they worked, and they routinely kept those floors clean and free of tools/debris. The guys were great to have around... really friendly, lovely with our pets, and really sweet and kind to our infant daughter.

** Following completion of our entire renovation, we found ourselves experiencing some plumbing issues. Unsure of the source of these issues, I asked Dan and his crew to come by and have a look to ensure they were happy with everything they'd done. They not only stood by their work (which was, we quickly confirmed, without fault) and went the extra mile to ensure we fully grasped the actual source of the issue... but Dan also continued to answer questions and provide assistance in the coming days as we pursued solutions.

These guys were lovely to work with, and I highly recommend them.
